16 Mont. 63 | Mont. | 1895
This is an action for an accounting, and for the cancellation of certain deeds to real estate. The plaintiff also asks for an injunction restraining the defendants from transferring or disposing of the property mentioned in the complaint, and for the appointment of a receiver pendente lite.
Upon a hearing to show cause why a receiver should not be appointed, and upon a motion to dissolve the temporary restraining order which had been issued in the cause, the court refused to appoint a receiver, and dissolved said temporary restraining order. From this action of the court the plaintiff appeals.
The order of the court refusing to appoint a receiver is not appealable. (Code Civ. Proc. § 444; Wilson v. Davis, 1 Mont. 98; Stebbins v. Savage, 5 Mont. 258.)
There were no affidavits filed or proofs taken in support of the application for an injunction. In refusing to issue an injunction, or ordering the dissolution of the temporary restraining order, the court had before it the complaint and answer, both verified. Acting upon these pleadings alone, which were doubtless treated as the affidavits of the respective parties, we are unable to discover any abuse of discretion on the part of the court in the action complained of in this particular. The granting or refusing of an injunction is a matter of discretion in the court, dependent upon the facts of the case. (See Blue Bird Mining Co. v. Murray, 9 Mont. 468 and cases cited; Klein v. Davis, 11 Mont. 155.)
There being no error shown in the action of the court below, the judgment is affirmed.
Affirmed.
